My Way News - Brin Says Google Compromised Principles: "Google Inc. (GOOG) co-founder Sergey Brin acknowledged Tuesday the dominant Internet company has compromised its principles by accommodating Chinese censorship demands. He said Google is wrestling to make the deal work before deciding whether to reverse course.
Meeting with reporters near Capitol Hill, Brin said Google had agreed to the censorship demands only after Chinese authorities blocked its service in that country. Google's rivals accommodated the same demands - which Brin described as 'a set of rules that we weren't comfortable with' - without international criticism, he said.
'We felt that perhaps we could compromise our principles but provide ultimately more information for the Chinese and be a more effective service and perhaps make more of a difference,' Brin said.
I hope Google isn't going down a slippery slope.
